[SQLObject] Unicode in mysql issue

[Alex <xk...@gm...>]

Hi all,
How to retreive unicode data from a mysql table with SQLObject?
When I run this code:
class Foo(SQLObject):
    class sqlmeta:
        fromDatabase = True
print Foo.select(Foo.q.id==55)[0].bar
...I get:
"?????????? ????????????? ???????? ?? ?????????? ?????? ? ???"
bar's type is mediumtext and collation is utf8_general_ci.

Bests,
Alex
